JOB 37:1–37:24 ©

The Book of Job 37

37“My heart really pounds when I think about that!

I feel as if it is jumping around inside me.

2Listen, all of you, to the thunder!

It is as if God is roaring!

3God makes such loud thunder that people can hear it throughout the land.

God makes such bright lighting that people can see it from far away.

4After lightning flashes, we hear thunder,

which sounds like God speaking very loudly.

Then, after the thunder, God makes more lightning.

5When we hear thunder, it is as if God is shouting in an amazing way.

God does things that are too wonderful for us to understand.

6For example, God can cause snow to cover the ground,

and when he tells a rain shower to rain even harder, it becomes a downpour.

7When God makes it rain so hard, everyone has to stop working outside.

This shows all people, whom he has made, what great things he is able to do.

8When it rains, the animals go into their hiding places

and they stay there until the rain stops.

9Storms come from the place where they start,

and cold winds come from the north.

10In the winter, cold winds turn water into ice.

The water in lakes freezes solid.

11God truly fills the clouds with water droplets.

He makes lightning flash from many clouds.

12He causes the clouds to move around over the places where people live

so that they can accomplish everything that he wants them to do.

13God may send storms to punish people.

God may send storms to water the land that he made.

God may send storms to help people by providing rain to make their crops grow.

God makes all of these things happen.

14Job, listen to what I am saying.

Just think about the wonderful things that God does.

15Are you able to explain how God arranges the clouds in the sky and makes lightning flash down from them?

16Are you able to explain how God is able to make clouds float in the sky?

Can you understand all of the wonderful things that God does?

God understands everything completely!

17Are you able to explain how God can bring in stifling air from the desert

and make it so hot that you cannot stay cool if you wear clothes?

18Are you able to explain how God made the sky

so that it would stay firmly in place above the earth?

19I doubt that you could tell us what to say to God.

People do not know enough to be able to defend themselves if they spoke with God.

20I would not dare tell God that I needed to speak with him!

If I did that, then he might destroy me!

21You know that people can not look directly at the sun

when it shines brightly in the sky after the wind has blown the clouds away.

22When God appears, he has glittering light all around him.

His glory is so bright that it makes us afraid.

So if we cannot even look at the sun, how could we look at God?

23Shaddai has very great power,

and we do not know how to get near to him.

He always acts righteously,

and he never mistreats anyone.

24That is why everyone should have great respect for him.

Any people who think that they are wise do not impress him.”
